your example link is using the captions, the text that you can type in when you embed an image into the post (or when you edit the image in a post).
you might need to add corresponding styles to get the colored borders (and might not work with your shadows ..)
Alchymyth, thank you for replying. I am trying to turn my shadows off for the post I am working on, but can’t figure out how to do that. When I first added a the 5 images to this draft page: http://www.paintersjourneyblog.com/?page_id=96&preview=true there were no shadows, then I added the word “frame” to the code area of an image, which did put a frame around them. The issue now is why only 1 out of the 5 has a nice small frame with no shadow and the others look as they do. I want them all the have that same small frame and then I will try your suggestion to add text.
Thank you again and any other advise to so appreciated,a s well as understanding that I am new to WordPress (Thesis) and HTML Code.

Also, how/where do I type in text “using the captions”?
probably best with a screenshot http://img854.imageshack.us/i/caption.jpg/
when you add a new image to a post, or edit the image in a post, you get this kind of popup.
what you enter into the ‘caption’ field, will be shown below the image; and if the styles for wp-caption are in style.css of your theme, it will be in a border/frame together with the image.
alchymyth, my style.css pages tells me: WARNING: DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE and to edit in my custom.css. Do you know a code I can type into my custom.css page to have a border added to all my images, without the shadow? I have tried turning that shadow off, have tried in my design page to turn frame images on”, then tried it off, no change to that shadow. And I can not figure out why one image at this link: http://www.paintersjourneyblog.com/?page_id=96 has a nice small frame (what I want) on it and the rest have a larger frame? Although I would like the addition of the little text you can type in the bottom of the frame. This link example is exactly what I would like in an image frame, it shows the little text included in frame area: http://www.artbizblog.com/2011/03/art-has-value.html.
Just trying to figure out the code and where to paste it to accomplish this feature/look.
Please anyone, help! I can not figure out why one image at this link: http://www.paintersjourneyblog.com/?page_id=96 has a nice small frame, which is what I want, and the rest have a larger frame?
